Bath re-enamelling in Fiddington, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and staining under the taps and around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Repair or replace in Fiddington?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Fiddington questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fiddington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
